Obstruction or nothing
OK, the folks on an inferior board with clearly inferior umpires has driven me to this. The problem is ... ONE quality umpire, who also posts here, seemed to agree with them. So I suppose I need a sanity check. This is not the exact play from there, but better illustrates the point.
Runner on 2nd leads off. F6 coming over as if to cover - collides with the runner, knocking both down. F2 receives the pitch, fires to F4 at 2nd base, who then tags out the runner.
Ruling?
